Celebration time: Global mobiles top 2 billion

This is good news for many companies involved in the industry. The number of mobile phone subscribers in the world has surpassed the 2 billion with growth now driven from emerging markets such as China, India, Eastern Europe, Latin America and even Africa.

Nokia estimates that the numbers of subscribers will hit 3 billion by 2010. By then, or probably even earlier, the first of those emerging markets will reach saturation. What else will be there that is different from now?
